    Buckle up and get ready for the response to that haha. If anything is of consolation, Rosberg has the capability to beat him. Chill.

    I'll be Impressed if any constructor can get two drivers in the top 8. There's going to be many issues this season.

    I think a lot of us feel the same. It's a combination of last season lacking any racing, the cars lack a bit of drama with the sound, and the possibility of a spread out field that's just not doing it for me. Hopefully it will be a good season though. I really hope it is.

    Debating waking up for SP3. Any others doing the same? Think I would be too tired to catch Quali then.

    Jenson has sounded just so dejected lately. Really feel for him and his family.

    DC just took the RB7 out on track. I am really going to miss that V8.

    Autosports 'vague at best' long run analysis:

    1 Mercedes, 1m33.882s
    2 Williams, 1m34.840s
    3 Red Bull, 1m34.869s
    4 Force India, 1m34.976s
    5 McLaren, 1m34.988s
    6 Ferrari, 1m35.110s

    2-6 is a healthy racing gap, hopefully that'll be 1st to 6th soon <ok>

    Yup. Of course I try explaining that to my mates, they tell me I'm weird. Philistines.

    Mercedes might have been fastest in race simulations but Rosberg was saying they were using too much fuel so things could be very different over a full race distance. As for Ferrari, Alonso was in traffic for most of his race simulation and as for Raikkonen, I'm not sure what was going on - he was 2 seconds slower than Alonso.

    They said the Kimi issue wasn't driver related, but not what the issue was. They said it affected alonso as well, possibly brake related balance?
